Bought a new Mathew's Drenalin today. This is my first Mathew's. It's rigged up with a Vital Gear Kaz-away rest, a Cobra Sidewinder Radiant site, and a Limbsaver gel stabilizer. It has a 27.5 inch cam and a loop on the string. I have it set at 65 lbs. The bow shoots smooth, fast, and quiet.

My other bow is a Fred Bear Instinct. Pretty much same equipment. The big difference is I have to crank my Bear all the way (70 lbs) to get any speed out of it and when I do its pretty noisy. The Drenalin at 65 lbs is pushing the same arrow quit a bit faster and is much, much quieter.

Time will tell in the long run if I made a good decision joining the Mathew's nation.....as far as today....I love the bow.

congrats on the new bow

sweet, lets see some pics...
I am itching to show y'all min, but I still have a few things to do to it, first.

Cbump--I'm thinking about about buying the instinct. Is it a quiet and smooth bow , I know that questions going to be hard now after shooting the Mathews. I'm on a budget and it doesn't include a mathews at this time. So any help with the Instinct would be of great help

Sorry Cbump that questions for gspbrad. Got confused so GSPBrad can you tell me some info on the instinct.

The Instinct is a good bow. The one I have is tuned and is easy to shoot. It was my first bow. It is shorter than my Mathew's by a couple of inches. I do feel a little hand shock compared to my Mathew's and it is not as fast.

If someone is on a budget and wants a solid bow, I think the Instinct is a fine choice. I'm going to sell my Instinct with all access. and an SKB hard case. Let me know if you might be interested.

How Much are you going to ask for the bow? You can e-mail me at my3outdoors@hotmail.com
